History 9 The SKYLINER 1 A copy of "THE SKYLINER", a monthly san newsletter was sent to me in October 2010. It is the October 1953 edition and is twenty six pages long. The price was ten cents an issue or a bargain yearly rate of one dollar for twelve issues. It contains news about the goings-on in the Wards, the Units and Surgery written by volunteer patients. Of interest to me personally are the names of several patients mentioned in the newsletter that I met and became friends with when I was admitted in April 1955. Page 22 shows Harold Riggle from West Alexander being admitted this month. Harold was in the bed next to me and I got to know him and meet his family on visiting days. He was discharged before I made meals in March 1956. It also gives some interesting tidbits of information such as the Library and Bookmobile schedule and a list of new library books, a list of newly admitted patients and the schedule of services for Grace Chapel. ___________________________________________________________ The following pages are the October 1953 issue of the Skyliner. ___________________________________________________________
